Verbundwohnen

[DeepL:] Composite living for women*

Our housing and support services are aimed at mentally ill and addicted women* from the Tempelhof-Schöneberg district who would like support in their current living situation.

At Verbundwohnen, up to 12 women* live in small, furnished apartments, each with its own bathroom and kitchenette, in a quiet location in Berlin-Lichtenrade. The residents must be able to provide for themselves. Abstinence from addictive substances is not a necessary prerequisite for admission to Verbundwohnen, but addictive substances are not permitted in the house and there should be a will to change with regard to one's own consumption.

Our office is located in the same building as the apartments and we are present on site from Monday to Friday and can therefore be reached quickly and easily.

Our goal is:

• provide a safe living and care environment
• to promote one's own understanding and conscious handling of both addiction and psychiatric illnesses
• Mitigate consequences of addiction and psychiatric illnesses
• Promote mindfulness, personal strengths and self-confidence

We offer support

• in changing the use of addictive substances
• in dealing with relapses
• in organizing everyday life
• in the development of a daily/weekly structure
• in dealing with authorities and government agencies
• in connecting to other medical, therapeutic and social offers, e.g. FAM
• in crisis situations.
